This paper is an exposition of the new subject of String Topology. We present an introduction to this exciting new area, as well as a survey of some of the latest developments, and our views about future directions of research. We begin…

The 2-matrix model has been introduced to study Ising model on random surfaces. Since then, the link between matrix models and combinatorics of discrete surfaces has strongly tightened. This manuscript aims to investigate these deep links…

Cohomological ideas have recently been injected into persistent homology and have for example been used for accelerating the calculation of persistence diagrams by the software Ripser. The cup product operation which is available at…

Primary cohomology operations, i.e., elements of the Steenrod algebra, are given by homotopy classes of maps between Eilenberg--MacLane spectra. Such maps (before taking homotopy classes) form the topological version of the Steenrod…

Let $M$ be a closed simply connected smooth manifold. Let $\F_p$ be the finite field with $p$ elements where $p> 0$ is a prime integer. Suppose that $M$ is an $\F_p$-elliptic space in the sense of [FHT91]. We prove that if the cohomology…

We introduce a commutative product of degree $-n$ on the homology $H_\ast(X)$ of an $n$-dimensional special cubical set $X$ and lift it on the free loop homology $H_\ast(\Lambda M)$ for $M=|X|$ to be the geometric realization. These…

This paper develops a discrete theory of real Riemann surfaces based on quadrilateral cellular decompositions (quad-graphs) and a linear discretization of the Cauchy-Riemann equations. We construct a discrete analogue of an antiholomorphic…

We recall the complex structure on the generalised loop spaces $W^{k,2}(S,X)$, where $S$ is a compact real manifold with boundary and $X$ is a complex manifold, and prove a Hartogs-type extension theorem for holomorphic maps from certain…

We extend the loop product and the loop coproduct to the mapping space from the $k$-dimensional sphere, or more generally from any $k$-manifold, to a $k$-connected space with finite dimensional rational homotopy group, $k\geq 1$. The key to…

We show that the structure of proper holomorphic maps between the $n$-fold symmetric products, $n\geq 2$, of a pair of non-compact Riemann surfaces $X$ and $Y$, provided these are reasonably nice, is very rigid. Specifically, any such map…

We give a geometric method for determining the cohomology groups and the product structure of a polyhedral product, under suitable freeness conditions or with coefficients taken in a field. This is done by considering first a special class…

We present a general homotopical analysis of structured diagram spaces and discuss the relation to symmetric spectra. The main motivating examples are the I-spaces, which are diagrams indexed by finite sets and injections, and J-spaces,…

For any natural numbers $k \leq n$, the rational cohomology ring of the space of continuous maps $S^{2k-1} \to S^{2n-1}$ (respectively, $S^{4k-1} \to S^{4n-1}$) equivariant under the Hopf action of the circle (respectively, of the group…

Stable fold maps are fundamental tools in studying a generalized theory of the theory of Morse functions on smooth manifolds and its application to geometry of the manifolds. It is important to construct explicit fold maps systematically to…

Take a multiplicative monoid of sequences in which the multiplication is given by Hadamard product. The set of linear combinations of interleaving monoid elements then yields a ring. For hypergeometric sequences, the resulting ring is a…

In this paper, we use Chas-Sullivan theory on loop homology and Leray-Serre spectral sequence to investigate the topological structure of the non-contractible component of the free loop space on the real projective spaces with odd…

The c-map relates classical hypermultiplet moduli spaces in compactifications of type II strings on a Calabi-Yau threefold to vector multiplet moduli spaces via a further compactification on a circle. We give an off-shell description of the…

We develop a geometric version of the circle method and use it to compute the compactly supported cohomology of the space of rational curves through a point on a smooth affine hypersurface of sufficiently low degree.

In this article we are concerned with how to compute the cohomology ring of a symplectic quotient by a circle action using the information we have about the cohomology of the original manifold and some data at the fixed point set of the…

Homotopy type theory is a version of Martin-L\"of type theory taking advantage of its homotopical models. In particular, we can use and construct objects of homotopy theory and reason about them using higher inductive types. In this…
